In the eCo framework, those types of searches can be accomplished through the type registries. 
You find the industry and category information by using the market and network layers of the 
eCo framework. Once you have found the right type, you can use the type registry to locate all 
of the businesses that are of or support that type and you can find out if one type is the 
same as another or not.

Agreed, some type of XML-RPC approach is not the way to go.
